abstract	Divine creation moves from implicit, transcendent oneness to explicity, manifest multiplicity. To contribute to the creation of a new civilization means to make oneself available to participate in a process of endless unfolding. The divine names are the archetypes organizing the material world. Divine names are not concepts; they are tools for invoking the animated presence of a particular aspect of the creative force, enabling dialogue between thinking processes and reality. Such a dialogue favors a presuppositionless, susceptive attitude to reality as more adequate than preconceived methodological assumptions.
